Re: -RS/6000

I want to apologize to all the people in the mailing list, and expecially to Mr
Jochen
Kunz, but in my previous posting I made a mistake:
My RS6000 system is NOT a 43/100, but a Model 7011-250
PPC 601 @ 66/80 MHz
L1 cache 32KB
1MCA Bus 80 Mhz.
So, I think I'm out of luck.
I'm sorry,
Ciao, Ric
